‘One of my best amateur highlights was winning England Golf Champion of Champions played on the Bracken Course at Woodhall Spa in 2021.

‘On the back of this success l went on to turn professional in May 2022. My professional career has not gone as planned. I have not be able to complete previous seasons due to illness. I am excited to get back out competing on the Ladies European Access Tour and the Justin Rose Series this year.

‘I have been working at Mellor Golf Club for a year now and absolutely love it here. My role is Assistant Professional helping out with new lady members and juniors.

‘I am looking forward to the awards evening on Wednesday 2 April. I am also looking forward to and excited to start to study for my PGA qualification in October.
